Some of you are probably using the buildnumber-maven-plugin from codehaus to get a scm id.The current released version 1.0-beta-4 is very svn centric.So the current trunk has been improved to be able to support more scm : git, hg (mercurial).The info command (yes an another svn centric name :-) ) has been implemented in Apache Maven Scm. Sure all scms are not supported but having at least svn, git and hg is a good start.

So you can test this new feature with a snapshot version : 1.0-beta-5-SNAPSHOT.

Note : to test this, you must be able to download some snapshots from various places (yes Apache Maven download the whole internet :P ).So if you use a repo manager, you must add the following repositories :* https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots-group/ (for maven scm snapshots)* https://nexus.codehaus.org/content/repositories/snapshots (for the buildnumber plugin snapshot)* https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots (for maven-scm-provider-svnjava )

Update 11 April 2011 : version 1.0 released and available in central repo.
